Julia Calfee's“Vanishing Glaciers“ installation now  showing at Johanniterkappel  in Rheinfelden , is part of “The Last Songs of the Glaciers”: a quest to capture remnants of ice memories. The artist/explorer grasps the very same trickels, as disappearing ice forms and recording, to collected in an artistic cauldron on the Rhineriver banks. Beginning in Vals Baths by Zumtor as a  Book , followed the streams up to the ice and living in a contaner, Julia Calfee challenged the glaciers melting away. She continues a career documenting social currents and profound changes in the modern world, from via Chelsea Hotel or Mongolia to the Silk road.
The vast issue of global warming has been portrayed inVideo and Richarda Simonett won the Radio feature Prize recently. Calfee's intimate and artistic manner, single-womanly and with 100 recordings of ice and water, inspires. Preview a slideshow.
